Hi,
This is possibly a very stupid question, but I couldn't find an answer by searching or reading the manual (maybe I'm just blind
). I've obviously got a server running cPanel, let's say the hostname is X.com
I've logged into WHM (as root) to create to extra accounts (as resellers) - let's call them Y.com and Z.com - and then I login to cPanel with those accounts and I can modify their settings or create other accounts etc.
What I can't do, is manage my "hostname" domain (what the actual IP of the box resolves to), because I can't log into cPanel as "root" (ie: invalid login), and I don't know of any other username to use. I've tried looking through the "list accounts" and "modify accounts", "parked domains" etc and the only time I see any mention of any domain(s)/account(s) other than Y.com and Z.com (reseller accounts), is on the "Show Active and Inactive Accounts" which lists "fedoracpanel" and X (where X is the username for my "X.com" domain) and Y (where Y is the username for my Y.com domain) - all three are "active".
I tried logging into cPanel with the username "fedoracpanel" and using my root password, but it doesn't work. I can't "create" my hostname as an account, because I get "You cannot setup a domain that is the same as the servers hostname" when I try to.
I'm using:
WHM 9.9.8 cPanel 9.9.8-R119
Fedora i686 - WHM X v3.1.0
All I want to do, is manage my e-mail (and website) for my "hostname" domain... is that so much to ask? :P
Help would be appreciated! thanks....
